For Moey, make a basic béCHamel, add some red or white wine and melt in as much blue CHeese as your Dr. allows. A bit of pepper but no salt as the CHeese usually packs enough sodium. This sauce is also great on pasta (with some fresh herbs and black olives).

not to be a debbie downer, but after tuesday, our next opponents are: washington, detroit, columbus, pittsburgh, and washington again. come to think of it, december's not much better. look, i'm sorry, i shouldn't have brought it up.

@MichaelBetty Friedan looks freakishly like she could've been Bea Arthur's long lost evil twin. I like the Gloria Steinam reference much more. Sexist AND skanky. I like that.

@parents of GGFagstein told me personally that I owe you an apology so on that note I apologize for keeping you from this blog for so long. Look at us! Yup little HF29 and me getting all sexist. Woo hoo!!

I'm heading to the movie premiere at the Bell Centre tonight. Meh, $16 for a movie: not egregious anymore.

Any other suckers, er, fans going too?

WV: (OMG TOO PERFECT) - "facked". Too many uses to limit myself to just one: What kind of facked up team is this? BG really facked up his 5 year plan? Our defence is facked. etc. etc. lather, rinse, repeat.

Not sure how many of the FHFers listen to Corus' ckac or watch vtélé's attaqueà5 but this lajoie clown is a barrel scrapper sans pareil and for context ckac regularly allows réjean tremblay to spew his xenophobic Bob Gainey hate, daily.

@LG...and the organ and hava nagilla and fedoras and the Stanley cup and work ethic and we had to walk all the way from CSL up to our arm pits in snow (ok, Jews didn't walk from CSL but we did walk from the car that dropped us off in front of the forum as opposed to the indoor parking lot)....

I took in about a dozen Montreal Forum Habs games, mostly in the SRO sections (probably a better venue than some mid level seats). Loved the Steamés and I miss the gorgeous Asian usherette, oft seen on Radio-Canada broadcasts).

(Why does it alwayts come back to the ladies? Its like they have a hold on us or something ...)

@Moey, merci. Nothing better than pork and BeerBQ sauce. I have 3 (of 6) Boréal Noire left to cook with. I drank one, not worth it and used 2 in my latest batch of 6 bean chili (which BTW is flavoured with a dollop of peanut butter, a tablespoon of instant coffee, a chunk of 75% dark chocolate and a dash of cinnamon).

@LGJune 9, 1993. BEST. DAY. OF. MY. LIFE. (including wedding and possibly birth of all 4 kids especially number 2 whose head is the size now that it was when he was born which... never mind). And $15 standing room tickets to see the Islanders lose. No vertigo, great view and a blast.

reminds me of a story. my grandma was famous for all sorts of recipes. as she neared the end, the family worked on getting all her recipes and secrets. she was famous for her chocolate chip cookies (among many others). we asked for the recipe, and she said flatly, "it's just the recipe on the back of the Chipits package!" we were floored. of course, making them never tasted the same. it IS the love.

... and I come back here to read about cookies baked with love and I start sniffling again!

Curse you all! I was looking for the snark!!!

Insta-review: Go see the movie. Moey, bring a box of kleenex. Trust me. It's totally schmaltzy, a work of pure saccharine fiction. And this totally unapologetic cheeseheart loved every minute. So there. Nyah.

About Four Habs Fans

The Four(-ish) Habs Fans are four(-ish) Habs fans. Three are from Montreal, though one of those is now stuck in the middle of the Red Mile. The other somehow grew up a Habs fan in the middle of Ontario Cottage Country, and now lives in Hogtown. Some of them are lawyers, so they are opinionated, and may or may not be assholes.

HabsFan29 is a lifelong Montrealer who decided the Four Habs Fans' email exchanges about the Habs were just too stupidly amusing and occasionally intelligent not to share with the world. The 29 is for the greatest (only?) Goalie-lawyer-PM candidate ever. He would like his mom to know that his meth habit is overstated on this blog for comedic effect.

HabsFan4 paid tribute to one of the finest gentlemen to ever don a Canadiens sweater. His legacy as one of the pioneers of the Gangsta Rap movement has always been understated. His Jaro posts will be recalled fondly by all.

HabsFanForever33 aka Panger is a Montrealer in Exile currently residing mere blocks from the Red Mile, yet whose passion for all things Canadiens has only embiggened with distance. HFF33 worships at the altar of St. Patrick. Panger still gets chills recalling the moment he met the greatest goal-scorer of all time, The Rocket. HFF33 is a life-long Habs fan, except during the Houle-Tremblay Era, when Le Club de Hockey Canadiens was dead to Panger.

HabsFan10 grew up watching Le Demon Blond on Radio-Canada with his unilingual English Dad in a WASPy little town in Maple Leafs country, at least until the playoffs each year, when he got to hear Danny Gallivan and Dick Irvin because the Leafs played on opposite nights (if they made the playoffs at all). Rick Middleton and Cam Neely sometimes haunt his dreams. He thinks Thurso, Quebec should be declared a national historical site. If you aren't sure what the 10 in HF10 stands for, you're on the wrong site, buster.

moeman born in l'Estie'd'Québec, was baptized Maurice because well his Mom, seeing his beautiful dark locks and glaring eyes knew he'd need a namesake, actually it was his Mon Oncle Yvon that CHristened his Habstism, deep in central Ontario no less. He took life's circuitous route and blessed his own son with the name Patrick in 1993. He also has a gorgeous daughter but she's a Sens fan, so, meh. moeman loves women, wine, song, women, Habs, his kids, women, iOS Apps, hockey blogging women and women. His other passion, he hates the leaf. He also loves women.
